BRUCE IS HOME!!!!!!!!
Jan. 30th, 2012 12:48 pmI am so relieved I can't tell you, shaking and crying. He's fine, a bit dirty and hungry but okay.
I went out to call again (like I've been doing every hour) and he answered! It was so loud and plaintive. I ran out into the opening and did my peering over walls thing again, but no sight, but he was yowling and yowling. So I ran round the side streets, calling and into the other opening (houses back onto each other.)
It was horrible, cos he was calling but I still couldn't see him. I knocked on a door that hadn't answered before and a man came to the door, I started to explain but he interupted me, saying he'd looked and he wasn't there.
"But I can hear him" I wailed. So he let me through his house to look myself. He wasn't there, but the crying was louder. Man suggested I go and call in my road. (I bit my tongue from asking him what he thought I'd been doing for the last 6 days!) and just started calling in his garden! ]
And he appeared, he clambered over some sheds and appeared. All yowling and leaves on his head and grubby and yowling!
He's okay. Still very yowly, He came in the house, straight to his food bowl and practically shattered my eardrums asking for food! He's eaten now and prowling the house interspersed with coming for cuddles (and getting grabbed by a slightly hysterical Lola every few minutes!)
I don't know what hapened to him, if he just got himself lost, or did get trapped somewhere and is now released, but he's home, and fit and well and I'm sooooooooo relieved.

Date: 2012-01-31 04:13 am (UTC)When my cat used to get himself lost from time to time he'd always come home dusty and grubby with cobwebs all over his ears and whiskers. I think he must have got himself shut inside dirty places like in someone's shed, and was so busy working on his escape plan he didn't have time to wash.
